Author: Hey everyone! The Badger is busy working. Just when it looked like I was poised to really make this web site and my projects into a great deal, I had to slow it down again. Just for a bit.
I had a great opportunity to get back to working. However that required me to spend some time during the week away from home and back in Iowa near my parents. I’m working with my uncle on homes that have been foreclosed and condemned, basically we go in and clean up these trashed homes to make them look good before going back on the market.
Aside from that I also am back in college! Now taking online classes through Bellevue University. I’m in an accelerated program, Leadership. I’ll be able to get my bachelors degree by the end of the next summer.
With all of this going on I also decided to hand over the reigns as state coordinator for Tea Party Patriots in Nebraska to someone else. My successor is James Mason of Nemaha County. James will be a great fit for the job and he’s looking forward to it.
I have also joined Examiner.com as a writer. My posts should start appearing soon. I’ll be featuring Republican issues/events from the Omaha area.
In the meantime I still intend to make frequent posts here, at the Rattington Post, on Facebook and still do my show as much as possible.
So just stay tuned! I appreciate your patience and friendship!
